Programing chips with Iguana Labs programer

**ailgup** · 04-02-2010, 05:43 PM

Hello i am trying to program 3 chips for a Renard 24 i am building (this is my first board so the less technical terms the better) i have a chip programmer that i have used before with 24 pin chips and programed them with a software called PG302. I tried this software with these chips and it didn't work. I think i need a different software any recommendations would be great.

I found some info on it from this site (around pg.3)

I'm no expert, but that looks like an ATMEL programmer, and it's probably not going to work with chips from Microchip (PIC).

From what I read, no support for Microchip IC's. So, it is not going to work, you will need a different programmer.

Cheapest...send them to someone who can program them for you. I can do it if you want. Send me a pm if interested, otherwise most here use PICKIT II or PICKIT III.

EDIT: If you are going to be building more you probably want to buy another programmer....

Good luck.

Search the forum for PICKIT II or PICKIT III I suspect there are some available.

huh looks okay but i think if anyone could offer to program them for me that would be great i don't know what the going rate is, but they could probably be shipped 1st class with a stamp. If anyone wants to offer their services i would love to pay someone to do this.
